I can assure you that we have NOT shipped ANY CSDs for the beta V2 (PDK)
compiler.  Unless there is a copy of version 1 of the compiler on
the PDK hidden away somewhere (and there's not, that I know of), you
cannot install the PDK to "the C Set/2 that is included on this disk".

When you think about it, it would make no sense to ship a fix at
the same time as the code -- we would just ship the fixed code.  -tim
